Russian invasion of Ukraine

[SidJames]

Volodymyr Zelensky-"When today the Russian MoD sets up a phone carousel and calls foreign ministers with stories about the so-called dirty nuclear bomb, everyone understands everything well. They understand who is the source of everything dirty that can be imagined in this war.

 

[Gaylord du Bois]

Once unimaginable, and unthinkable.

Now a very serious possibility.

Russian invasion of Ukraine has been an un-mitigating disaster from a Russian perspective

Russian defense Minister Sergei Shoigu today warns French Foreign Minister Ukraine is preparing to use a "dirty bomb".

A dirty bomb is a combination of high explosives and nuclear material.

Personally i think it unlikely the Ukrainians are considering using a crudely made nuclear device in a war they are already winning.

More likely the Russians are preparing the narrative of denial afterwards by projecting before using a Nuclear weapon to try stop advancing Ukrainian forces..

This will be a US/NATO red Line crossed.And highly likely escalate the regional conflict in to a full blown World war.Quite possibly a nuclear war.

US has already warned Russia it will sink its Black Sea fleet as part of the retaliation.And directly hit Russian forces.US 101st Airborne Division is already just miles from Ukraine border.

Ukraine crisis is at dangerous tipping point.

Ah, well. It was fun while it lasted...

If that Russian missile had hit a NATO aircraft in international airspace we have been in deep Article 5 territory.

Escalation would be inevitable at that point, and given that Putin has already hinted at going nuclear it wouldn't take a lot to tip us over the edge...

Do you think they will wait until after the World Cup has finished?

It's the Olympics we need to worry about.

'Russia’s invasion of Georgia in 2008 took place during the summer Olympics in Beijing. The Kremlin’s invasion of Ukraine in 2014 took place during the Winter Olympics in Sochi, Russia. Because of this pattern, many analysts have pointed to an increased risk of a new Russian invasion of Ukraine during the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics.*'

Just make sure the blue side is facing you and it covers your nose properly & you should be ok.

Will a mask protect me?

Yes, but only after you have taken the bathroom door off it's hinges then hide behind it.
